Unbreakable Bond
Well in the reviews, you guys wanted me to continue so I will. xxx
Mary walked into her chambers, having given the body of Anne to the blacksmith for measuring for the coffin. She slowly took off her dress and replaced it with a blood red one. When she was attempting to return her puffy eyes to a normal state, a messenger came in announcing her immediate requirement in the court.
In court, Mary took a seat next to her father and Jane Seymour. Jane said "Mary, how are you?" Without looking at her, Mary nodded curtly and watched as the man addressing the court unrolled a long scroll. He cleared his throat and read out, "The Last Will and Testament of Lady Anne Boleyn Tudor." Jane looked at Henry and said shrilly, "Surely, you are not going to grant the wishes of that concubine?" Henry looked at her and replied, "I gave her my word, sweetheart, I'm sorry." Jane sent him daggers but said no more. Mary was glad, she didn't think she could have stood it if Jane went on about Anne. The announcer continued, "First, to my sweet daughter Elizabeth, I leave the Boleyn Family Seal, my royal tiara, the Boleyn Necklace, my wedding ring and the title of Marquess of Pembroke. Secondly to his majesty, King Henry, my lord." At this, Henry shifted uncomfortably, "I leave all of my money, and wish that you use it wisely. Thirdly, to my sister, Mary, I give her legal custody over Elizabeth should anything happen to the king and wish her to return to court. And finally, to my beautiful stepdaughter, Mary," Mary sat up straight at the mention of her name, "I leave all of my dresses and jewels, except those I have given to your sister. I wish you all to pray for the life of the King." The man rolled up the scroll, promptly bowed and left.
Thomas Boleyn was sat in his chambers, staring into space, when a messenger arrived. "Thomas, I have a message for you and your daughter." Mary came into the room, her eyes rimmed with red. Thomas signalled for the man to continue. "The Lady Anne's will has been found." Thomas sat up, at least something good came out of his daughter's death. "Lady Mary, you have been given legal custody over the Princess Elizabeth, should anything happen to the King and are invited back to court." Mary nodded, smiling slightly. The man then rolled up the parchment and made to leave. "What about Thomas Boleyn?" asked Thomas. The man unrolled Anne's will once more and read it. "The only mention of a Thomas Boleyn is this. 'To Papa,(Thomas Boleyn) you will not inherit any of my possessions, since you abandoned George and I, and persuaded me to send Mary away. You ruined my life, but I still love you." Thomas sat there in shock as the man left. Was it true that he had pushed away his children?
